This list is an up-to-date roster of those fighters currently under contract with the Brave CF brand. Fighters are organized by weight class and within their weight class by their number of fights with the promotion.

Each fight record has four categories: wins, losses, draws, and no-contests. All fight records in this article are displayed in that order, with fights resulting in a no-contest listed in parentheses.

Brave Combat Federation adopted a new weight class for 2019: Super Lightweight (165 lbs), and also increased the weight limit of the Welterweight class to 175 lbs. [2]
